Joint Replacement at Shivam Orthopedic Hospital: Restoring Mobility and Quality of Life

Joint replacement surgery is a transformative option for individuals suffering from severe joint pain and mobility issues due to arthritis, injury, or other conditions. At Shivam Orthopedic Hospital, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive joint replacement services to help patients regain their independence and improve their quality of life.

Understanding Joint Replacement

Joint replacement involves surgically removing a damaged joint and replacing it with an artificial joint, known as a prosthesis. Common joints that may require replacement include:

• Knee
• Hip
• Shoulder
• Ankle

These surgeries are typically recommended when conservative treatments, such as medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications, are no longer effective.

The Benefits of Joint Replacement

1. Pain Relief: One of the primary reasons for joint replacement is to alleviate chronic pain, allowing patients to engage in daily activities without discomfort.
2. Improved Mobility: After recovery, patients often experience a significant increase in their range of motion and overall mobility.
3. Enhanced Quality of Life: With reduced pain and improved function, patients can return to hobbies and activities they love, enhancing their overall well-being.
4. Long-Lasting Results: Modern prosthetic joints are designed to last many years, offering long-term relief and functionality.

The Joint Replacement Procedure

1. Pre-operative Assessment: Before surgery, patients undergo a thorough evaluation, including imaging studies and consultations to ensure they are good candidates for the procedure.
2. Anesthesia: Joint replacement surgeries are typically performed under general or regional anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.
3. Surgical Procedure: The surgeon makes an incision at the joint site, removes the damaged joint surfaces, and inserts the prosthetic joint. The incision is then closed, and the patient is taken to recovery.
4. Rehabilitation: Post-operative care includes a structured rehabilitation program that focuses on physical therapy to strengthen muscles and restore mobility.
